Installation of VPI must be performed using the SDK Manager automated installer, stepping through the installation and setup of the platform on the host and target system.
Consult the SDK Manager User Guide for detailed instructions to install VPI.
The SDK Manager interface must be used to flash the system with the desired configuration.
The installer copies VPI files to /opt/nvidia/vpi/vpi-0.1, which contains the following sub-directories:
| include | C headers |
| lib | runtime shared libraries and link libraries |
| samples/01-convolve_2d | Image Convolver sample application |
| samples/02-stereo_disparity | Stereo Disparity Estimator sample application |
| samples/03-harris_keypoints | Harris Keypoint Extrator sample application |
| samples/04-resample | ImageResampler sample application |
| samples/05-timing | Sample application that shows the use of events to retrieve algorithm execution elapsed time |
| samples/06-klt_tracker | Sample application that shows how to use KLT Bounding Box Tracker |
| samples/tutorial_blur | Complete project and source code of the blur tutorial |
| samples/assets/chair_stereo_{left,right}.png | Example input stereo pair images to be used with Stereo Disparity Estimator sample application |
| samples/assets/kodim08.png | Example input image to be used with several sample applications |
After a successful installation, start learning some basic concepts, then go write your first application with VPI.
